Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg dominated the New Hampshire primary election, snagging nine delegates each, with Sanders gaining the most votes. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) was the only other candidate to win delegates, with six, while Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and former Vice President Joe Biden trailed in fourth and fifth place, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Buttigieg said on Feb. 16 that his campaign would be able to improve its standing with minority voting blocks in New Hampshire, and he made an apparent dig at billionaire Tom Steyer, who has spent more than $100 million so far.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWeve seen how fluid it is. Of course, I dont have billions of dollars of my own money to pour into the airwaves,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/video.foxnews.com\/v\/6132969452001#sp=show-clips\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">said on \u201cFox News Sunday.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Buttigieg said his campaign has over 100 organizers on the ground in New Hampshire. He was also asked about the high number of candidates competing for the moderate lane, which could split the moderate vote, leaving the nomination open to Sanders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think thats what voters right now are in the process of settling,\u201d he said. \u201cWe also cant do it by telling people that their only options are between a revolution and the status quo.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Neither Sanders nor Warren appeared to be booked on any talk shows for Feb. 16. Sanders was scheduled to speak at a <a href=\"https:\/\/events.berniesanders.com\/event\/231792\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">rally in Denver<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Biden, following poor results in New Hampshire and Iowa, said on Feb. 16 that its too early to count him out, noting that he has wider support from the African American community, which is a significant proportion of South Carolinas Democratic electorate. South Carolina will hold its primary on Feb. 29.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIm the only one who has the record and has the background and has the support. They know me,\u201d Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/campaign\/483295-biden-last-time-we-ran-african-american-votes-were-basically-taken-for\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">told NBCs \u201cMeet The Press.\u201d<\/a> \u201cThey know who I am,\u201d referring to African Americans.<\/p>\n<p>An average of nationwide polling data <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearpolitics.com\/epolls\/2020\/president\/us\/2020_democratic_presidential_nomination-6730.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">aggregated by Real Clear Politics<\/a> placed Sanders at the top with 23.6 percent of the vote. Behind him was Biden with 19.2 percent, followed by former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg with 14.2 percent, Warren with 12.4 percent, and Buttigieg at 10.6 percent. The rest of the field polled in the single digits.<\/p>\n<p>Klobuchar used some of her time on talk shows to criticize Bloombergs heavy spending in the election. Bloomberg has shot up in some of the nationwide polls in recent weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI dont think you should be able to hide behind airwaves and huge ad buys,\u201d Klobuchar <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNNSotu\/status\/1229052435378974725?s=20\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">said on CNNs \u201cState of the Union.\u201d<\/a> \u201cI know Im not going to be able to beat him on the airwaves, but I can beat him on the debate stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked to comment on reports alleg<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/democratic-candidates-battle-ahead-of-nevada-caucus_3239787.html\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More \u2013 Source<\/a><br \/>\n[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ninebyninedesign.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/download.png\"\/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Epoch Times<\/a><\/h5>\n<p>[contfnewc]<br \/>\n[contfnewc]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the Nevada Democratic caucuses approach, and with the field of 2020 presidential contenders narro..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":141889,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-141888","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
